Hello, Can you use one remote for two light strips? If so, is there instruction on how to do this?

Yes, you can use one remote for multiple strips. I put three strips around my kitchen (under one cabinet and above two others), but use only one of the included remotes to control all three. No instructions needed. I keep the other two remotes as "spares", in case I lose or break the first.

Yes , you have to have enough amperage goin to it though . Connecting the two strips is easy enough as they sell connectors for exactly that . Be warned the remote control units that are being sold are a little vague . It was a bit of a guessing game getting the wiring hooked up right but once done it looks incredibly nice :-) <{ under counter installation for me }.

Yes. You don't need instructions, the remote just works with other sets. I have two sets and the remote that came with each works for both light strips.

Not sure, as I haven't used mine yet. However, theoretically should be easy as long as both have same frequency. Often there is a code on the remote--if so, and they are different, you won't be able to as each receiver is set for a different frequency. Thus, you need a second receiver (dimmer) with same code as the other, as opposed to a second remote...

If you can chain them together. The light controller will control as many lights as you have, but you have to chain them from one light to the other. You can only put one input into the controller.

Don't know. I only use one remote on one master with 3 slaves. I don't have the need to install 2 masters in one room. Sorry, I can't help. But in thinking about it, since it's IR and not bluetooth, you have to point the remote at the master, so even if the IR code is the same, a second master need not necessarily activate if you're pointing the remote to only the first master, as long as they are not installed side-by-side.

Good question. I don't have an answer since I only have one strip plugged in. My assumption is that the LED's will operate as one. There aren't any switches or buttons to seperate their function. Personally, I'd have a controller for every strip (even though it accepts 3 strips). The effects are incredible. I'm looking into a controller with many functions as my next purchase. Hope this helps your decision.

You can operate with just two if the other lights are configured as optical slaves. Do this with my 2 light setups outside all the time.

I only have the one remote and 6 lights. No problem. But they use a lot of batteries and its a bit expensive so I don't use these lights anymore.

These simply repeat whatever signal is put into it, with a power boost. This is useful for having only 1 controller, but using these you can send that signal with plenty of power to however many strips and repeaters you want. For my build, I used a 360w power supply and 5 of these repeaters to power and send signals to about 10 RGB LED strips (2 strips per repeater) with just 1 controller. What I used: http://www.amazon.com/SUPERNIGHT-Switch-Power-Supply-Switching/dp/B008HARHN8 Edit: On the output side of the repeater, you can see two 'power' terminals. I wired two repeaters from each terminal from the above mentioned power supply. Alternatively, you can also use http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B7BGAXW (though I've had mixed results with plug compatibility). For me, I have my repeaters wired directly into this cable: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008LR6EAY, which then goes to a connector that attaches to the lights. Overall I would suggest using a DC power supply if you plan on using more than 1 of these.

I second the suggestion of a universal remote. You can find them rather inexpensively. If you want to use two remotes then you will need two of the transmitter and 2/3 AA battery combinations. Of course one comes with the unit. A second one will cost about $20 here on amazon. It might be a little less expensive to go with a universal remote. If another concern drives you to want to use two remotes, be sure you get your extra transmitter with the same frequency as your unit. There are only two frequencies.

Each light ordered comes with a separate controller, but one controller can operate multiple lights separately. I ordered a number of these fixtures and have a drawer full of remotes.

If you have the model with a remote control for the light, the toggle switch positions must match. That way you can control multiple lights with one remote.

I have 2 of these lamps with 2 remotes. I just a eather remote at eather lamp and they will control them separately. Unfortunately they can't do both at the same time. I hope this helps.

dear friend,we will send you the light and remote one by one if you buy more than one.And you can control the lights with one remote if they are not far away.thanks

I run multiple dimmers for different parts of my home, patio, garage, ect, and i found they are all on different frequencies. I have never had 2 on one remote yet. I hope this helps. ( I have been very pleased with this product!)

NO , sorry you will have to push 2 buttons. You could, if you really wanted to, wire the two lamps together. Also note these are too big to use 2 on one outlet , you have to use a power strip. These are well made and work very well. I have 6 , one by itself, 5 on one remote (5 buttons) sitting next to my recliner and I love them. Hope this helps.

yes, one remote will control multiple lights. You need to have the lights sitting together in order to sync them. But if you just want to keep track of one remote, it will work for multiple lights.

Each strip will require approx. 5 amps of power when operating in white light at maximum brightness. With that being said, each strip will need a seperate ccontroller which is included. As a consolation, you can use the same remote but unless they are a distance from one another it will be hard to control with precision.
